Hi,
> You have to add your PostgreSQL bin directory to your path...
Can't you simply precede the command createdb with a ./ or should it be .\
Changing your path is a rather 'heavy' solution that requires root access,
espacially under unix.
BTW: where can I find postgreSQL for win32? I would like to give it a go.
